Why Spray Foam Insulation Should Be Removed

Spray Foam Removal

Spray foam insulation was a popular choice for homeowners because it is energy-efficient and can help to reduce noise. However, spray foam insulation is considered to be dangerous if it is not installed or removed properly and even harmful to health over time. In this blog, we will discuss the dangers of spray foam insulation and how Lofteaze can help you safely remove it from your home.


The Dangers of Spray Foam Insulation

Spray foam insulation can be dangerous for your health and can also damage the structure of your home. Here are some of the dangers of spray foam insulation:


  • Health hazards: Spray foam insulation can release harmful chemicals into the air, including formaldehyde and isocyanates. These chemicals can cause a variety of health problems, including respiratory problems, headaches, dizziness, and nausea.
  • Structural damage: Spray foam insulation can expand and contract with changes in temperature and humidity. This can cause it to crack and crumble, which can damage the structure of your home.
  • Fire hazard: Spray foam insulation is flammable. If it comes into contact with a flame or heat source, it can ignite and spread quickly.
